Cat Matlock has been a licensed massage therapist and bodyworker since 1993. She has spent her entire career studying how to relieve pain in others and how to teach people to relieve their own pain through the use of therapy balls, foam rollers, and yoga for strengthening and flexibility. Her approach is unique in that it weaves her knowledge of trigger points into the rolling practices.

The following classes are held at FreeBody, Cat’s Trigger Point Massage Clinic.

FreeBody Trigger Point Therapy Clinic is located at 619 Haywood Rd. West AVL

This series is for massage therapists and anyone who wishes to understand the muscular trigger points which cause headaches and migraines and how to release them on one’s own body. We will employ simple self trigger point release and self massage techniques with targeted stretching and strengthening. You will leave this class empowered with a much better understanding of the muscular causes of headaches and how to address them. Simple breathing practices to soften tension in the nervous system will be taught as well.
